"You despicable scoundrel, I'll tie you up first!"
Seeing that the scoundrel was trying to tie her up, Uzumaki Kushina angrily activated her Adamantine Sealing Chains and shot them out, intending to bind him and hang him up first.
However, Tamura Hiroshi raised his hand and caught the incoming Adamantine Sealing Chains. Ignoring the sealing power on them, he gave a strong tug, pulling the young girl towards him. He then took out the Sword of the Thunder God and gave her a session of electrotherapy.
This was an ability he had discovered during a previous battle. A genjutsu ninja had tried to use genjutsu on him, but it had been completely useless.
The essence of genjutsu was to interfere with the opponent's five senses using chakra, causing them to fall into illusions. The method to break free was to disrupt one's own chakra flow, so it was fundamentally based on chakra.
At that time, he had understood many things. Chakra was like a computer system; those with higher authority had more abilities and power. The bloodline and bloodline limit of the Otsutsuki were undoubtedly the highest tier.
This was why the Sharingan's genjutsu could affect many people. Even a strong individual like the Fourth Raikage was incapacitated by Madara Uchiha's gaze, and the Fourth Mizukage was controlled by Uchiha Obito for a long time.
But his own chakra was different. With the help of his Golden Finger, he had erased all chakra imprints, turning it into the purest chakra. Naturally, it was not affected by the chakra system of the Ninja World.
It was like using the imperial sword of a previous dynasty to judge an official of the current one.
The Adamantine Sealing Chains of the Uzumaki clan were similar. Their essence was to use the bloodline power derived from the Ten-Tails and the Otsutsuki to suppress others' chakra.
Tamura Hiroshi's chakra was not of the same system, so it was not suppressed. That was why he dared to catch Uzumaki Kushina's Adamantine Sealing Chains with his bare hands.
Of course, the main reason he could be so brave was that Uzumaki Kushina had only activated one Adamantine Sealing Chain, and she was not skilled at controlling it yet. It was too slow and not flexible enough.
If it had reached the level of binding the Nine-Tails during the Nine-Tails Rebellion in the future, he would have immediately fled.
He could only be immune to the interference and sealing abilities of the Adamantine Sealing Chains on his chakra, but he couldn't break the chains. If he were entangled and bound like a rice dumpling, he would be in trouble.
As for Uzumaki Kushina, who had been electrocuted, her fiery red hair stood on end, her delicate body convulsing, and drool even dripped from her mouth.
"Alright, alright, no need to pick on a little girl!"
Dodai couldn't watch any longer and picked up the young girl, putting her down.
"You despicable scoundrel, why aren't you afraid of my Adamantine Sealing Chains?"
After a long while, Uzumaki Kushina recovered and glared at him indignantly, her heart full of confusion.
This was the first time she had seen someone who wasn't afraid of the Adamantine Sealing Chains. Moreover, this person had the same ability as her great-aunt, just like what Grandfather had said.
"The Adamantine Sealing Chains are very strong, but you are too weak. As long as your chakra control is strong enough, you can mobilize it to some extent."
Tamura Hiroshi made up an excuse, claiming that his chakra control was high enough to mobilize some chakra to electrocute her.
"Little girl, he's a bad guy, but we're not. In the future, the Uzumaki clan will move to our Kumogakure, and we'll be family then. Now, tell us about your great-aunt's ability."
Dodai unhesitatingly labeled Tamura Hiroshi as a bad guy and wanted to get more information about that ability from the little girl.
As for the great-aunt the young girl mentioned, he knew she was the wife of the First Hokage, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
The fact that this kid obtained this ability from the Nine-Tails Chakra from the corpses of Kinkaku and Ginkaku, and that the wife of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki also possessed such an ability, made it even more important to investigate.
"You're all bad guys, I won't talk to you!"
Uzumaki Kushina didn't buy it at all. She glared at Tamura Hiroshi and stomped away indignantly.
Although her freedom was restricted, she could still move within a certain range.
"The little girl is angry!"
Dodai smiled, then signaled to the other three and walked towards a tent not far away.
After the three entered, Dodai looked at Tamura Hiroshi seriously.
"I have a mission for you. Use the Transformation Jutsu to disguise yourself as A and contact our people. Remember anyone who harbors ill intentions and report back to me."
This ability to sense good and evil was very useful and could effectively distinguish between friend and foe.
"A spy?"
Yozuki A understood and his expression became solemn, knowing that Dodai was referring to spies.
The core of a Ninja War was intelligence warfare, and the core of intelligence warfare was spies. There were bound to be all sorts of spies in the village, planted by enemies, bribed, or controlled by leverage. It was difficult to distinguish them.
"Not just spies!"
He said meaningfully, knowing that there were some problems, even hidden dangers, within the village.
Although Kumogakure was much better off than the other Four Great Shinobi Villages, especially after the Third Raikage eliminated the Kinkaku and Ginkaku faction, the village had become much cleaner, but there were still some hidden dangers.
If they could be found and controlled or eliminated, it would be very beneficial for the village's development and prevent them from being betrayed by their own people one day.
And then there were the spies. They didn't need to be found and eliminated. A spy who had been exposed posed no threat and could even be used in reverse.
"I understand!"
Tamura Hiroshi understood and immediately observed Yozuki A carefully, noting all the scars and dust on him. Then, using this as a basis, he performed the Transformation Jutsu to disguise himself as him.
Although his Chakra Quantity was pathetic, his mastery of the Basic Three Jutsu was not bad. In fact, due to the improvement in his chakra control, he performed them even more perfectly.
Yozuki A also performed the hand seals and used the Transformation Jutsu to disguise himself as an Anbu Ninja. He would accompany Tamura Hiroshi later.
If they walked together, even ninjas with sensory abilities would find it difficult to distinguish them, which would provide better cover and concealment.
"Does the Uzushio Hidden Village not need our support?"
Fukai asked, as the battle there was likely not easy.
"That's a war belonging to Uzushio Hidden Village, and at this stage, their combat objectives are somewhat opposed to our existence, so it's not good for us to interfere."
Shaking his head, Dodai had no intention of interfering in that war, and the Uzumaki clan didn't want them to go over there now.
Moreover, they had a more important mission for the Uzumaki clan: to protect the portion of the Uzumaki clan members who had been relocated.
It could be said that they were the foundation that allowed the Uzumaki clan to fight with peace of mind. Even if the other side lost, the Uzumaki clan could still be passed down and would not be wiped out.
"What about my old man?"
Yozuki A was a little worried; Konoha was not easy to deal with.
"Third Lord is probably fighting a tough battle right now, after all, he's not good at putting on a show."
Dodai chuckled. Although the previous battle with the Kirigakure Ninja Army had consumed a lot of Third Lord's Chakra, it wasn't a big problem given his reserves.
He could still suppress someone like Shimura Danzō, but he couldn't appear too strong at this moment. He needed the help of the Uzumaki clan to eliminate those people.
Otherwise, the upcoming Great Ninja War might see the Four Great Shinobi Villages join forces to attack Kumogakure.
Kumogakure had gained enough in this battle; appearing any stronger would only make the other Ninja Villages envious and wary.
Yozuki A suddenly understood and breathed a sigh of relief.
Tamura Hiroshi was praying that this time Lord Danzo would become a "bare commander." Only by killing Danzo's current capable subordinates would he, Tamura Hiten, have a chance to rise. It would also make Lord Danzo pay more attention to intelligence work and intelligence personnel.
After a silent prayer, Tamura Hiroshi transformed into Yozuki A and, as the Raikage's son, went to console the ninjas after the battle. The vast majority of them were well-intentioned, with only a very small minority harboring malice.
Tamura Hiroshi noted down those individuals and roughly categorized them based on the intensity of their malice, later informing Dodai.
He wouldn't need to interfere with the subsequent matters; Dodai would arrange everything.
